I find that statement appalling, I guess those of use that have served have a greater respect for the office.So while you're busy hating Bush, your Democratic led Congress has a 7% approval rating, their continue to block our energy independents, they waste time and money investigating baseball, they're letting tax cuts the save you $2500 dollars a year expire, they're pushing to reinstate the death tax, raise the capital gains tax and heres the kicker they want to increase the gas tax by 10 cents per gallon while we're paying record prices ... and that my friend I find appalling!

Bush hasn't been perfect, but he hasn't been nearly as bad as you'd like us to believe, put down the Daily Kos, New York Times, NBC Kool-aid. I don't expect to change your mind, and there is no point in trying to. What I will do is to continue to support the Commander and Chief as long as I think they are acting in the bast interest of the country. Call me a Bushie, call me a Rightie ... it's better than being a wrongie.

Too bad they don't have a =burp= icon on this forum... You assume I have no respect for "the office?" I'm not "busy hating" anybody. It's not "[my] Democratic Congress." "[I'd] like you to believe?" Do you have an all-seeing eye that lies to you? You don't know anything about my politics other than my disappointment in BUSH. I'm older than you and may have voted for more Republicans than you have. I have stated repeatedly I am no Democrat. But because I challenge your belief systems, you swipe at me. Stop making it personal. I challenge the status quo, but tonight I'm sober, so I won't pick up your gauntlet.

Are you a American citizen that pays taxes? Then it's YOUR Democratic Congress.
